New Testament

The New Testament is the second part of the Christian Bible, the first part being the Old Testament. While the Old Testament was written from 1400 BC onwards in Hebrew, the New Testament was written by 96 AD in Koine Greek. It discusses the teachings and person of Jesus, as well as events in first-century Christianity. The New Testament is a source for Christian theology and morality, and it focuses on the life, teaching, death, and resurrection of Jesus (the Gospel); a narrative of the Apostle ministries in the early church (the Acts of the Apostles); 21 letters (epistles) consisting of Christian doctrine, counsel, instruction, and conflict resolution; and a book of prophecy, the Book of Revelation.
